Judaism is older. It is the oldest monotheistic religion in the world (known one at least probably there were other who we do not know about that were older) and it is over 3000 years old. Way before any Iranic people reached the ME.
Abrahamic religions are religions that originated among Semitic people on Semitic lands. Hence the many similarities. Even geographically speaking Hijaz and the Levant are just next by. The two regions have several thousand year old ties. For instance Prophet Muhammad (saws) and his family (Quraysh) who were traders had constant trading ties with the Levant, Yemen, Iraq etc. They are very different from anything else - the religions.
Totally different from what you saw in Europe, Asia, Africa etc.
